Vere Novo

         ”Qu’un éblouissement de folles ailes blanches

qui vont, viennent, s’en vont, reviennent, se fermant,

se rouvrant, dans un vaste et doux frémissement.”

         -Vere Novo, Victor Hugo

         ”Dazzling white wild wings

which come and go, go and come back, close themselves

opening again in a wide and gentle simmer”

          -Translation
